Velocisaurus was small and
probably a very fast runner.
Although only its foot and part
of its leg have been found, the
way its foot is designed seems
to show that it was made to run.
This would have been one very
speedy dinosaur.

With its long middle toe it has been associated with the ceratrosaur family. The genus is not universally recognized.
